Welcome!
Since I have been away I have been looking into the issues which have cropped up thanks to new regualtions in both the EU and the USA.
I am happy to report that I can now dispatch orders to the EU - hurray!
As for the tarriff situation in the USA. The information that I have gained is that individuals can import upto $800 in a single order before tarriffs and other taxes will be levied. However, as the situation has been changing rapidly, it may be advisable to check for any new rules changes with your customs authorities.
If you have any questions, or would like to discuss a custom order, please contact me at

This colourway was put together as part of the 'Ancient Artists' Club. The inspiration was the beautiful fresco of a reclining nymph found on the wall of 'The House of the Golden Bracelet' in Pompeii.
As this fresco was preserved by the volcanic eruption of 79AD, the fresco muct be at least 1943 years old - which counts as ancient to me :-)
I loved the muted tones of this fresco, shades of light gret, deep grey and a dusky pink in her rather flimsy 'clothing'.
The colourway is made from carefully blending tussah silk with light grey Shetland. The blending forms a beautifully open and soft blend, which will be gorgeous to spin.
The Shetland fibre in this blend will felt. If you do not wish it to, hand wash in cool water.
